Jiang Zhipeng (simplified Chinese: 姜至鹏; traditional Chinese: 姜至鵬; pinyin: Jiāng Zhìpéng; born 6 March 1989) is a Chinese footballer who currently plays for Guangzhou R&F in the Chinese Super League.
Jiang Zhipeng started his football career when he joined the Genbao Football Academy in 2000 and was promoted to Shanghai East Asia's first team in the 2006 season. On 10 December 2010, Jiang transferred to top tier side Nanchang Hengyuan along with Wang Jiayu for a total fee of ¥6 million. He scored his first goal for the club on 24 September 2011 in a 5-2 loss against Shandong Luneng. Jiang made 28 league appearances in the 2011 season which secured Nanchang's stay in the top tier for the 2012 season. He followed the club when the club decided to move to Shanghai in 2012 and they rebranded themselves as Shanghai Shenxin.
On 29 January 2014, Jiang transferred to fellow Chinese Super League side Guangzhou R&F. He made his debut for the club in a league game on 9 March 2014 in a 1-1 draw against Tianjin Teda. By the end of the season he had established himself as a vital member within the team and helped guide Guangzhou R&F to their highest ever position of third within the league and qualification for the AFC Champions League for the first time in the club's history.
